Zi Yan ad6941b192 mm/cma: use nth_page() in place of direct struct page manipulation
commit 2e7cfe5cd5b6b0b98abf57a3074885979e187c1c upstream.

Patch series "Use nth_page() in place of direct struct page manipulation",
v3.

On SPARSEMEM without VMEMMAP, struct page is not guaranteed to be
contiguous, since each memory section's memmap might be allocated
independently.  hugetlb pages can go beyond a memory section size, thus
direct struct page manipulation on hugetlb pages/subpages might give wrong
struct page.  Kernel provides nth_page() to do the manipulation properly.
Use that whenever code can see hugetlb pages.


This patch (of 5):

When dealing with hugetlb pages, manipulating struct page pointers
directly can get to wrong struct page, since struct page is not guaranteed
to be contiguous on SPARSEMEM without VMEMMAP.  Use nth_page() to handle
it properly.

Without the fix, page_kasan_tag_reset() could reset wrong page tags,
causing a wrong kasan result.  No related bug is reported.  The fix
comes from code inspection.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
